Are they still wearing adult diapers in support or is that out of style now?

Fuck. I’d forgotten about that until reading this. I’d have preferred it that way.

This is just disturbing. These people need psychological help.

Seeing a row of women who look like his ex wives cheering. Like fucking really? Do you want him to rape and beat you as well like he did his first wife? You wanna be with him while he rapes children? What in the ever living fuck is wrong with those people?

Don't ask a question like that as you may be disturbed by the answer you get.

What, they cut up their performative diapers?

Performative?

They help with performance. If you don't need to go to the bathroom every time you need to pee, you perform better at various functions /s

They were wearing them over their pants and so weren't going to catch their shit. Hence, performative.

Oh, I figured at least some were wearing them that way thinking they might actually work. :)

"I'm wearing daddy's pants, I'm wearing daddy's pants, look daddy! Look!"

[Dad walks by, not acknowledging child except to quickly scowl in dismissive disappointment]

The stupidity of the yokels is astounding. There's no saving this country. Repubs have made their constituents too blinded by culture war bullshit to think critically about anything.

I love how they have a bunch of classic pictures of people fawning and speakers at podiums, and then "Rudy fell in a row of chairs."

Those two pictures of him would have been funnier if presented the other way around

And the diapers? Do they wear those as well? I remember when this same bunch were wearing purple heart bandaids to mock Kerry.

With the diapers, the ear bandages, the flags and wigs and spray tan, prepping for attending a Trump rally may require more work than prepping to attend a Rocky Horror screening.

It's silly, but I like this headline better than "Trump supporter breaks into house and beats man with a hammer" or "Trump supporter kills police officer during attempted takeover of Capitol" or any number of other things we've had happen this year.

They're going to buy a lot of Chinese-made red MAGA hats and flags anyway, so I don't see this as too far off.

As long as it doesn't lead to anything worse.

What's the over/under on the amount of Kotex they cut up?

"But mom, all the ~cool~ cruel kids are doing it!!"

So... if the attempt was successful would they all be plugging themselves in the head too?

Corporate news sewers are falling over trying to suck themselves off over this fucking horserace gold.

It’s not unexpected, not even a new low for them. Just disgraceful and despicable.

Now is a good time to break out the tiny bandaids used to mock John Kerry.

I'm picturing the amount of hysteria from the pearl-clutching tone police about "the rhetoric".

Vinn diagram of people wearing ear patches and masks is just two circles yeah?
